More than 40 students were awarded scholarships for the fall 2018 semester at Paul D. Camp Community College.

Scholarships for continuing and high school students were available, as well as two Neall Family Charitable Foundation Scholarships, offered through the Virginia Foundation of Community College Education for the second consecutive year. Eight more were awarded the Smithfield Foundation Scholarship.

“We want our students to have access to an affordable education,” said Vice President for Institutional Advancement and Workforce Development and Executive Director of the PDCCC Foundation Dr. Renee Felts. “Although community colleges can save students a lot of money, some students still struggle to make ends meet while trying to attain their educational goals.”

“We are so grateful to all who have provided the funding for these scholarships,” Felts continued. “We are fortunate that the community believes in our mission and invests in education.”
